Substrates
Substrate Condition:
The surface must be rigid, clean, dry, free of dust and grease
Substrate Preparation:
Porous surfaces in water loaded applications should be primed with primer 150. Prepare non-porous surfaces with a activator or cleaner. The surfaces should be degreased before bonding them together. While producing plastics to bonding or sealing. For optimum adhesion use of surface activator is recommended.
Substrate Types:
Dolphin Fix & Seal All Purpose has a good adhesion to following substrates: all usual building substrates, concretes, aluminium, lacquered wood, steel, AlMgSi1, electrolytic galvanized steel, AlCuMg1, flame galvanized steel, AlMg3, steel, ST1403, polystyrene, polycarbonate (Makrolon®), PVC, ABS, Polyamide, PMMA, fiberglass reinforced epoxy, Polyester. Dolphin Fix & seal All Purpose has no good adhesion or is not suitable for PR, PP, PTFE (Teflon®) bituminous substrates, copper or copper containing materials such as bronze and brass Bonding plastics like PMMA (e.g. Plexi®glass), polycarbonate (e.g. Makrolon® or Lexan®) in stress loaded applications can give rise to stress cracking and crazing in these substrates. The use of Dolphin Fix & Seal All Purpose is not recommended in these applications. We recommend a preliminary adhesion and compatibility test on every surface.
Joint Dimensions
